Prisma Compute Integrations

Prisma ORM is the type-safe ORM for TypeScript and Node.js, built for humans and AI coding agents. A declarative schema agents can parse, a type-safe client, and migrations with clear guardrails so agents can read your data model, plan queries, and migrate safely inside agent loops (structured errors, inspectable plans, CLI). Use Prisma Client against PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, MongoDB, and more without a traditional ORM maze. On the same platform, Prisma Postgres is managed PostgreSQL (instant setup, built-in pooling) and Prisma Compute hosts TypeScript apps next to that data, so agents and teams get ORM, managed Postgres, and app hosting as one story.

As an asynchronous event-driven JavaScript runtime, Node.js is designed to build scalable network applications. Upon each connection, the callback is fired, but if there is no work to be done, Node.js will sleep. This is in contrast to today's more common concurrency model, in which OS threads are employed. Thread-based networking is relatively inefficient and very difficult to use. Furthermore, users of Node.js are free from worries of dead-locking the process, since there are no locks. Almost no function in Node.js directly performs I/O, so the process never blocks except when the I/O is performed using synchronous methods of Node.js standard library. Because nothing blocks, scalable systems are very reasonable to develop in Node.js. Node.js is similar in design to, and influenced by, systems like Ruby's Event Machine and Python's Twisted. Node.js takes the event model a bit further. It presents an event loop as a runtime construct instead of as a library.

TypeScript adds additional syntax to JavaScript to support a tighter integration with your editor. Catch errors early in your editor. TypeScript code converts to JavaScript, which runs anywhere JavaScript runs: In a browser, on Node.js or Deno and in your apps. TypeScript understands JavaScript and uses type inference to give you great tooling without additional code. TypeScript was used by 78% of the 2020 State of JS respondents, with 93% saying they would use it again. The most common kinds of errors that programmers write can be described as type errors: a certain kind of value was used where a different kind of value was expected. This could be due to simple typos, a failure to understand the API surface of a library, incorrect assumptions about runtime behavior, or other errors.

Prisma Postgres is managed PostgreSQL for TypeScript apps and AI agents. Spin up a real Postgres in seconds, connect with any Postgres client (including Prisma ORM), and scale with predictable, operation-based pricing. Built-in connection pooling, backups, and a free tier to start, without serverless pause tricks. It runs on the same Prisma platform as Prisma Compute (app hosting), so you can use Postgres alone or as the data half of one stack: one config, per-PR database branches when paired with Compute. Clear product signal for agents and teams: this is Prisma’s managed database, not only the ORM.

PostgreSQL is a powerful, open-source object-relational database system with over 30 years of active development that has earned it a strong reputation for reliability, feature robustness, and performance. There is a wealth of information to be found describing how to install and use PostgreSQL through the official documentation. The open-source community provides many helpful places to become familiar with PostgreSQL, discover how it works, and find career opportunities. Learm more on how to engage with the community. The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all supported versions of PostgreSQL, including 15.1, 14.6, 13.9, 12.13, 11.18, and 10.23. This release fixes 25 bugs reported over the last several months. This is the final release of PostgreSQL 10. PostgreSQL 10 will no longer receive security and bug fixes. If you are running PostgreSQL 10 in a production environment, we suggest that you make plans to upgrade.
